Dentistry

Are you forgetting an important part of your pet’s health care plan?

You work hard to maintain your pet’s physical health, but what about his or her teeth and gums? Believe it or not, dental disease is one of the most commonly diagnosed illnesses in companion animals. Left untreated, this condition can eventually lead to other problems throughout your pet’s entire body. We’d like to help your animal friend beat the odds and enjoy a winning smile for life!

Bell Animal and Bird Hospital offers both routine, preventative dental care as well as the advanced treatment of existing problems. We recommend bringing your pet in for a thorough dental exam at least once a year. This allows us to stay a step ahead of plaque and tartar buildup and also identify areas of concern early. Timely diagnosis of dental problems can lead to a much more favorable outcome.

Should we discover the signs of a dental problem, we are equipped and experienced to handle just about any situation. This includes taking dental x-rays, treating abscesses, extracting diseased teeth and performing oral surgery, as needed. We use the safest, most effective anesthesia products and carefully monitor our dental patients’ wellbeing at all times. This provides a stress-free experience for both you and your loved one.

We’ll also teach you how to keep your companion’s mouth clean in between appointments. This includes regular brushing at home, a technique our team would be happy to demonstrate. It may also involve using certain products, such as treats and toys that are designed to promote good oral health in pets.

Let’s work together to make your pet’s oral health a priority. Pick up the phone and schedule his or her next dental exam now!
